A sleep expert advised that children from 9 months to 7 years get 12 hours of sleep a day, with strict adherence to bedtime and wake-up times.

“Sleeping at exactly seven in the evening and waking up at exactly seven in the morning is the goal that we must strive to reach,” Sky News Arabia quoted British sleep expert Jennifer Robinson as saying, reports Al-Rai daily.

And she added, “If the child wakes up at six in the morning, then it is best in this case to bring the bedtime to bed for an hour.” And she continued, “A child who is 9 months old should sleep 12 hours, and continue on this approach until the age of 7 years.”

But for a baby before he reaches 9 months, his sleeping habits are different and related to the number of hours he naps during the day.
